He was consistently active and disruptive on the defensive end of the floor as well. Look for him to have a breakout junior season for the Blue Devils.

Versatile guard with size and length that impacts the game on both ends of the floor. Defensively he has the ability to guard multiple positions with his quickness and active hands.
